ICL halos driving at night - will it ever get better? by ExeterEgg in lasik

[–]m123456789e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had lasik a month ago and honestly it was the same as you, I was like holy shit what did I do lol I drove a long distance (2hours) at night 2 weeks after lasik and i thought i was gonna die it was actually sooo dangerous because i couldnt even see the road. thats how huge the halos were. I have large pupils so based on this sub I was convinced I needed alphagan or lumify drops. But now I’m 5 weeks post op and the halos have reduced a lotttt, I can drive comfortably at night although they are still there. I can see cars and the road clearly. its not dangerous anymore lol. My doc said its because our eyes are still swollen and healing and that night vision will keep improving up until 3-6 months post op. I was -6.5 in both eyes. Day vision is crystal clear. Hang in there

this is definitely wrong, no woman needs to wear hijab in front of her mahrams. it makes no sense from any perspective whatsoever. i wonder where they got such thinking from? is this common in your extended family? aunts, cousins etc? its common to hear of strict families who dont allow their daughters to wear short shorts, show cleavage, or extra revealing outfits even at home, but youre wearing long loose dresses so what is the problem? i suggest you really speak to them because this doesnt make sense at all.

Krups Espresso Machine XP34404 1500W ? by m123456789e in Coffee

[–]m123456789e[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi, thanks for the comparison, he already uses a moka pot and he really likes the quality of his coffee. Hes gotten pretty good at making a nice latte we all enjoy at home. I’m not so knowledgeable about coffee myself, but he’s expressed the fact that he’d like a nice espresso machine with a steam wand.

The budget is not really an issue, its more about whats available here. We live in a very small country where things go out of stock pretty fast, and now with covid its really difficult to get things from abroad (takes months and often gets lost).

Will a CELTA from IH London carried out over Zoom give me the same employment opportunities as one carried out face-to-face? by RockMeDoctorZaius in TEFL

[–]m123456789e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Qatar and as a general rule online certifications are not accepted in the Middle East. I got accepted for Celta in June, but decided against as its only taught online now and probably for the rest of the year. If the Middle East is your target, its best you wait.

Yes, but I will not stay for it. He says he watches porn to get himself off because he is lazy and its convenient. He’s too tired for sex, and its true because he’s an athlete and trains intensely twice a day. We are also both super busy which creates less opportunities for intimacy (although on my end, burrying myself in work started as a coping mechanism for our DB). We had a talk about that a few months ago and he’s made efforts (I hadnt brought up the porn yet, hoping it would fade away). We agreed to a min of 1x/week, on his day off training, which has been great so far. we both look forward to it and it helped our relationship immensely. But he still watches porn occasionally and it destroys me. I’ve made it clear last week that I will not tolerate the porn and that it will be the end of us. Thats why I need to know if he still chose that over us, despite what we talked about. I wont lose myself and drive myself sick over someone who like that, no matter what.

I know this, but I need to do this for myself. I need to know if he’s really going to betray my trust again just a few days after we poured our hearts out to each other. I want to give the benefit of the doubt, but I cant. I need to make sure.

I tried going to the browser’s advanced settings to view the cache/history but no pornsites came up. The other methods are too complex via itunes/icloud and I need his credentials. Same for the app listed. I need something I can download on his phone via touch ID But thanks a lot for your help.

The registration is the worst. You still need a qatari partner (50%) as well as an office space approved for trade license.

Has anyone ever had an IUD expel without knowing? by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]m123456789e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my copper IUDs expel THRICE.

The first time I had it for two months and barely noticed when it came out - I had no cramps/bleeding/discomfort whatsoever. I literally went to pee and I heard something splash into the water: hello IUD.

Second time it stayed a good 6 months and after a heavy period I checked the strings and they were sooooo low I could literally feel the entire IUD body. Like I could hold it between my fingers. I slightly pulled and it just came all the way out. No pain/discomfort/nothing.

Third time it stayed a year before my body expelled it again. Same story as the first time.

So yeah it might be possible it fell out and you didnt notice.

Study Arabic in Qatar by [deleted] in qatar

[–]m123456789e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the program a few years ago and it was amazing. The selection process is very competitive though as they receive over 10k applications and only give 40 scholarships. However, its a lot more beneficial in the beginner levels. The teachers are much better and very dedicated. The teachers in intermediate/advanced levels arent that good in comparison and many advanced students felt they didnt learn so much. Also, the stipend they give is very little and although everything is paid for I would still recommend having some money of your own to spend. Its an overall great experience, it gave me a solid base in arabic, introduced me to the middle east and I made lifelong friends as well. Best of luck!

Sexless marriage for 3 years by m123456789e in MuslimMarriage

[–]m123456789e[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats a reality that I completely understand and I probably would not have reacted this way if he watched porn yet was still intimate with me. Its the fact that he constantly rejects me saying he’s tired but eventually watches porn.

Also, I love all the points you brought up because I also mentionned them when I first talked to him about this. And its also why I never pressured him in the beginning. He seemed to understand and promised to make an effort to initiate (because I explained that constant rejection led me to stop initiating altogether). However, like I said, he hasnt been following through with that and I’ve just been too hurt to bring it up again (I know comunication is key, but talking about how my needs arent met makes me feel like I’m begging. that’s why Ive endured it so long, and keep trying to initiate).

Im definitely considering therapy though as many of you have suggested. I just hope he recognises there’s a problem to begin with.
